Suns 2025-2026 Season Discussion

[AzStevenCal]

Although Eddie was a streak shooter and knew when to turn it on and off.

Not really, I always thought that's why he kept ending up in the Coaches doghouse. And he wasn't alone, a lot of volume shooters used to approach it the same way. The League's understanding of good shot versus bad shot has changed considerably but in the largest sense, a good shot, then and still, is when your teammates are expecting you to shoot.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying a "hot shooter" shouldn't be putting up a bunch of shots. It's just that they still need to occur within the flow of the offense.

Curious to see what he can provide, his statistics this year haven't been impressive at all.

As I recall, Cotton Fitzsimmons had a pretty good handle on Eddie. When he was hot, he couldn't miss. Then, when he went cold, Cotton would substitute for him. Eddie was either on or off. Not much in-between.

I had wished for better news. Hope the Suns are being cautious.

They are being cautious, that's why they are giving him the extra week off. I am not worried, he will be back soon.

Hopefully we can come back fully healthy after the all-star break.

It starts now. I've learned tomorrow never comes.

Tomorrow comes every day, it just changes its name.

On top of that, Grayson Allen isn't healthy right now no matter how much one wants him to be. Returning from injury takes time. Nobody can argue that.

Of course, I'm talking about procrastination. Planning for tomorrow so one doesn't have to work today, seldom works out if done repeatedly.

I'm not sure where we're going with this but I see no procrastination. Building anything is a process. From where we started, I'm astounded that we have almost a complete team despite having so few assets to work with.

Book in the 3pt contest. League wants star power.

I'm simply expressing my no excuse philosophy. Next man up... the Suns shouldn't be waiting until after the All-Star break to start winning.

More like people who aren’t already at all star weekend don’t want to go just to do an all star Saturday event.

In no way should Devin even qualify, he is actually one of the worst 3 point shooters who shoot any kind of volume this season.

Damian Lillard is taking part also. They're desperate for star power.

In addition to Book and Dame, Knueppl, Maxey, Donovan Mitchell, Norman Powell, Bobby Portis, and Jamal Murray are all taking part. Very weird group.

These gimmicky ASG side exhibitions have probably run out of gas. After the first few guys who were barely even playing in the league started winning the dunk contest, that should have been the tipoff the novelty had worn out.

Who said they should? I said I hope they're fully healthy after the all-star break. That is all.

Jordan Ott said after Monday's practice there was no "real update" on Cole Anthony's status.Said before Saturday's game the two sides were "determining" whether Anthony would join Suns or not.Phoenix acquired Anthony from Bucks in three-team deal before Feb. 5 deadline. #Suns
